While Rafaelle might have wanted to have nothing to do with Kerr, the same can't be said for one lucky fan who had turned up to the game with a homemade jersey.

The fan in question had actually converted an old Socceroos top, using black electrical tape to cross out Lucas Neill's name and replace it with Kerr's as well as adding a zero for her number, 20.

Kerr had reached out to the fan on social media after he had been spotted at the Matildas' win over Brazil at Penrith on Saturday and invited him to come to the game so she could hand over a real one.

The fan responded and Kerr lived up to her promise after the match after handing him the shirt off her back and signing it for him.

Kerr's performance further strengthens her claims to the best women's player in the world after she was named on FIFA's shortlist. The list will be whittled down this month and the winner announced on October 23.

Kerr has already collected a gong this year after being crowned the best female footballer at a Professional Footballers Australia ceremony in Newcastle on Sunday.
